Benefits of the Visa* Business Advantage card
Flexibility
Online account management
Manage your Visa Business Advantage card account online on AccèsD Affaires with the Business Account Management service.
You can make the following changes to your credit card account online:
- Request to change your credit limit
- Change your address or phone number
- Add, cancel or replace a card
- Set card controls (such as daily limits and transaction limits)
- View manager activity reports
Different payment options
There are 2 options for paying your credit card balance. Choose the one that works best for your business.
Centralized payments
Make a single payment each month to your business's main Desjardins credit card account (master account). This single payment will pay off your card and all other cards associated with your master account at the same time.
Decentralized payments
Pay the balance of each card associated with your master account separately. This frees up each card's credit limit as soon as the payment is processed.
Second credit limit
With Accord D Business financing, you can get a second credit limit for your card of up to $100,000.
You can repay it in equal monthly installments with a term of 1 to 7 years depending on the financing amount. You can also repay the balance in full or in part at any time without penalty.
